Abstract (en)

[origin: US2005153052A1] A method and device for sensing food quality includes a detection material having an inherent sensitivity to a contaminant and changing a property in response thereto. The detection material is subjected to a modulating agent to alter the sensitivity of the detection material, so that exposure of the detection material to the contaminant causes the property to change in response to a level corresponding to the altered detection sensitivity.
